    A galvanometer whose resistance is \[120\,\Omega \] gives full scale deflection with a current of 0.05 A so that it can read a maximum current of 10 A. A shunt resistance is added in parallel with it. The resistance of the ammeter so formed is [Bihar MEE 1995]

    A)                    \[0.06\,\Omega \]

    B)                                      \[0.006\,\Omega \]

    C)                    \[0.6\,\Omega \]        

    D)            \[6\,\Omega \]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                 Resistance of shunted ammeter\[=\frac{GS}{G+S}\] Also \[\frac{i}{{{i}_{g}}}=1+\frac{G}{S}\] Þ \[\frac{GS}{G+S}=\frac{{{i}_{g}}.G}{i}\] Þ \[\frac{GS}{G+S}=\frac{0.05\times 120}{10}\]= 0.6 W
